Synopsis

El Sentir de las Montañas (The Feel of the Mountains) is an ethnographic documentary work made with members of the Latin American community in London. The film is divided into three chapters, through which we meet different people. Trying to understand more about some of the different situations that Latin American people have experienced or are experiencing in London, the film is an exploration of arrival, community and healing. Through the work we hear the story of an arrest, we meet a volleyball playing community and take a look at an alternative therapy.
